Back during the huge boom last year my husband got his referral. When we went to mail it in we noticed it was filled out in full except his name was blank. This could have been a major source of fraud if we were different types of people. We let the organization know about it after the fact and they laughed. Guess they did not take it too seriously.

It was this type of incompetence that allowed for fraud to exist. Add this circumstance to the fact it would take 6 months for anyone to look at the paperwork creates an environment made for fraud. We had hundreds of people jumping on the MMJ bandwagon that did not care about legality or regulations. It was about making a buck.

I am surprised we have not heard about more of this, then again when the backlog is this huge we still might hear of more abuse in the months to come.

Let's take this out of the hands of incompetence and legalize it completely.
